We’re getting closer and closer to the holiday season and that means making plans. We have friends coming to town, will make two trips ourselves, and are already working on our holiday gift lists and plans. The holidays always seem to be a whirlwind of traveling, visiting and fun.
We love every second of it!

How to Make the Most of Your Holidays
Shop Early – Whether you shop throughout the year for holiday gifts or get it all done online in one night, getting the shopping finished early makes it easier to relax and get into the holiday spirit. Once you’ve finished, there will be no more stressing about who is left on the holiday gift list, just time to enjoy the season.
.
Include Others – The house doesn’t have to look like a magazine spread during the holidays. Let the kids help you place holiday items around the house or have a Christmas tree decorating party for friends and family. You’ll enjoy having more time with loved ones and less time spent worrying about a perfectly-staged home.

.
From the Heart – Instead of worrying about how you’ll afford holiday gifts for others, give gifts from your heart. Make a few batches of pretty holiday cookies, wrap them up in fancy boxes and write personal notes telling the recipients how much they mean to you. They will remember your heartfelt gifts much longer than something found in a store.

Travel Smart – The holidays are a popular time for travel, so be on the lookout for great deals you can take advantage of.
